Eco Education

INSPIRING CHANGE

Eco Education is a top priority of Bright Beat, be it at a multi-day music festival, non-profit fundraiser, or a corporate holiday party. Sharing our knowledge of, and passion for the environment and sustainable living, Bright Beat activates eco education in a variety of ways to engage diverse audiences. From sharing radical recycling facts, promoting the virtues of composting, demystifying recycled-content goods, and keeping clothing and e-waste out of the landfill, Bright Beat has the resource recovery domain covered. Our impact extends well beyond bins by offering tree saplings for adoption, encouraging energy-saving pledges and providing biking resources. Bright Beat inspires action, not just intention. Action confirmed by each attendee we meet who values our presence, recognizes the positive impact, and relays their appreciation. They are inspired to act! That’s successful Eco Education.

JOIN BRIGHT BEAT!

Enjoy some of the best festivals in Chicago and beyond, while doing your part for the environment.

“I applaud the things you have done as well as what you are trying to accomplish, and feel a much more profound impact could be made in what we do if every venue had a position such as yours. Again, thanks for helping the Black Eyed Peas execute their environmental initiatives.”- Jim Beek, Tour Greening Manager Black Eyed Peas

“With the assistance of Stephanie Katsaros and Bright Beat, Allstate Arena has experienced significant savings in waste hauling expenses, we received a valuable energy efficiency grant, sold a green sponsorship and have been recognized in the trades and local media for our "Green for a Reason" campaign.
